Will putting a cantenna in a flower planter block wireless signals.

Hello, I live in an apartment where we're not supposed to put up
antennas for wireless signals. I'm trying to share wireless internet
with a neighbor. I was thinking of hiding a cantenna in a flower
planter. I was wondering if putting it in the planter will allow me to
receive wireless signals well. Thanks.

Hi
As long as the Front side is not masked by the flowers it should be OK.

I part coated an apprx 7 inch thin wall plastic flower pot
with kitchen aluminium foil, and used a ZyDas based USB
wireless adapter (9.99 UKPDS inc P&P) does what you
want, fantastic. Worth a try.
